Pistons vs. Magic - Game Recap - March 24, 2017 - ESPN
ORLANDO, Fla. -- The late-season shift to a smaller and quicker lineup has seemed to benefit all of the remaining Orlando Magic players, especially Elfrid Payton.
The third-year player has been on an impressive run since Frank Vogel made the change to small ball just before All-Star break, and his latest impressive performance further damaged Detroit's playoff hopes.
Payton continued his impressive run Friday night with 14 points, 11 rebounds, and 10 assists -- his fourth triple-double in the last 10 games and seventh of his career -- in helping the Magic rout the slumping Pistons 115-87.
